Where mobile stories come alive

We play mobile RPGs, adventures and everything in between, then write down what actually feels good and what wastes your time. No hype, just the games we couldn't put down. Recently we spent a weekend digging into Big Bass Drop, and the notes are all here.

Why us

We finish the games

Reviews only go up after someone on the team has really played, not skimmed a trailer.

No paid scores

Ratings are decided in-house and never tied to money or favours.

Real notes

We write down the small annoyances too, because that's what you feel on hour three.

Editor’s pick

Emberfall Saga
RPG

Emberfall Saga

★★★★★ 4.7

Emberfall Saga is the kind of RPG we hoped more studios would attempt on mobile. You gather a small party, each with their own quirks and grudges, and travel a world that remembers what you did two chapters ago. Combat is turn-based but quick, so it never drags during a short session.

  • Party building with real personality
  • Choices that carry across chapters
  • Combat quick enough for phones

Questions & answers

How do you choose which games to review?

We install anything that looks interesting and play it for a few hours before deciding. If it holds up, it gets a full review; if it doesn't, we usually skip it. Reader suggestions push a lot of titles up our list.

Do you get paid to write reviews?

No. Scores are decided by the team after we've actually played, and money never enters the conversation. If that ever changed, we'd say so clearly on the page.

Can I suggest a game for you to cover?

Absolutely, and we read every suggestion. Just email us the title and why you like it — that's how titles like Big Bass Drop ended up getting a full weekend of testing from us.

Is there advertising on the site?

We may show basic, non-intrusive ads to keep the lights on, but they never affect our opinions or ratings. Editorial and advertising stay completely separate here.
